Councilmember Joy Hollingsworth's Staff

Email Anthony

Anthony joins Councilmember Hollingsworth’s office with twelve years of experience in advocacy, politics, and communications. His previous experience at the City of Seattle includes four years as a Digital Communications Advisor and Press Secretary in the Mayor’s Office under Mayor Jenny Durkan, and a year in the Seattle City Attorney’s Office as Communications Director. 

A graduate of Ithaca College in 2010, Anthony moved to Seattle that same summer on the back of a Trek bicycle with a volunteer group called Bike and Build. Over 68 days, he rode from Providence, RI to Seattle, stopping along the way to build houses with Habitat for Humanity. After his trip landed in Seattle, he landed his first job out of college with Working Washington, a worker-advocacy organization that helped pass the $15 minimum wage legislation in Seattle. In the Mayor’s Office, he worked on several major legislative projects, including the Seattle Promise, which guarantees two years of community college for all Seattle Public School graduates. He is passionate about civic engagement, leveraging technology for public good, ensuring that Seattle’s public assets are serving all residents equally, and public utilities (yes, really).  

In his spare time, Anthony enjoys reading, playing games, and going on walks with his husband and their dog, Tofu. He is constantly getting reprimanded for clearing leaves out of storm drains.
